Nutrition & Wellness Services
LESD’s Nutrition and Wellness Services team is committed to providing healthy, high quality meals to all students in the district. It is fundamental for students to be well nourished in order for them to learn and to grow. We strive to offer the best quality items each day and are always glad to receive feedback from students and the community. We have been transitioning to including more freshly prepared items on our breakfast and lunch menus. If you have any suggestions, please let us know. Thank you!
